Del Mar Pick 6 – Aug 6
Thursday (8-5-10) Del Mar Recap
Early-pressing speed got stronger as the day wore on.
Martin Garcia and Alonso Quinonez both booted home a pair. Mike Mitchell saddled two winners on the day.
On the ticket front I tabbed 5 out of 6 for the sixth time at the current stand. For the record, I had four Primary (Gotham Devil, Sheeza Beast, Light of a Star, Quick Enough) and one Secondary (Gibson Home Run) winner. The conso returned $140.20.

Friday (8-6-10) Del Mar Pick 6
Friday’s pick six from Del Mar includes the Grade 3 Sorrento Stakes for 2-year-old fillies traveling six and one-half furlongs on Polytrack. Final Mesa has easily captured her three lifetime starts and scratched out of a recent Saratoga Stakes in favor of this. Izshelegal just missed winning the Landaluce in her career bow and should appreciate the added distance. The weather forecast calls for AM clouds followed by PM sun with a high temperature of 67.
Degree of Difficulty: Moderate. On a scale of 1 to 10, the Friday pick six from Del Mar rates a 6.
Possible Singles: Princess Beau K (4th race), Pretty Kinzie (8th race)
